"prototype" 10 Meter Amplifier

I see no input tuning/output tuning, and the board should be turned 180 degrees to shorten the length of the coax jumpers from the board itself to the SO-239's. Those leads should be as short as possible.


While it does look like a quality build, there are some improvements to be made.

IMO, the old Messenger amps, and the old Palomar/Magnum series amps set the standard for how a production "10 meter" amp should be built.

~Cheers~

350 watt power input MAX, yet 480 watt PEP SSB OUTPUT. Hmmmmm????

He may have found a way to break the laws of physics.


Where did you get that from?? The specs shown in the Ebay sale show 350 watts DC input and 120 watts AM/FM out or 250 watts pep at 1 dB compression.

    Hello gentlemen and Ladies. I have the dreaded RCI-2990 receive issue where my radio gets distorted when people get close to my location. I found the C90 Capacitor, but I can not for the life of me find the C89 capacitor. Can or does anyone have a picture of the exact location of C89 ? Thank you in advance, Wes
